Jon Udell: If the REST folks want to call the SOAP people architecture astronauts who don't appreciate the simple things that made the Web great, then they probably ought to play that RDF pedal a little more softly.

Dave Winer: Lots of politics in RSS, which is still stuck in a weird place. We're doing what we can to unstick it. Bravo!

Mike Deem: Choosing not to support a given feature of a specification is very different from publishing a subset of a specification and implementing only that. The first case merely reflects the the limitations of a platform, the specific needs of a given application domain, or the scarcity of resources available for implementation. The latter is more akin to trying to take control of a technology from a standards body and forcing other vendors to come along.
It would have been real amusing to watch the reaction if the snippets returned in the Google Search responses were hexBinary. Readily consumable by the MS SOAP Toolkit, but not by .NET remoting or ASP.NET.

DiveIntoMark publishes statistics and linkbacks hourly. Radio has a scheduler.addTask.

Joe Gregorio: To have this level of incompatiblity with differing versions of the same format is troubling. To understand how this occurs, it is helpful to understand it from the perspective of some of the personallities involved. Somehow it seems fitting that, Joe's weblog entry on the subject was one of those that was produced and upstreamed by Radio yet breaks Radio's news aggregator. I guess it is time to investigate AmphetaDesk.
